Documentation

How the Workbench actually works.

Current public line: 0.2.0. Purchasing and public download are not open. Approved pilot participants receive the package from the operator.

A local-first workbench for a project manager’s operational picture, used beside existing tools.

Security & privacy

Project work stays on your computer. An online account holds identity and licence records only.

Open security & privacy

Where project data lives

Each Workbench workspace is a local SQLite database on the user’s computer. Project records, attachments, backups, and exports stay under the user’s control. The website account does not store project content.

Starting the application

The current public line is a Windows portable package. Approved users start it from the supplied launcher. Keep the package on a fixed local drive. Synchronised folders such as OneDrive are not a supported live location.

Saving

Saved means the change has been committed in the local workspace database. A second browser tab cannot take over an already open writable workspace.

Backups and restore

Use the product’s verified backup and Backup Explorer restore paths. Copying a live database file while the Workbench is running is not a restore method.

Export and handoff

Use explicit export and portable package paths when information needs to leave the Workbench. There is no cloud sync and no multi-user editing of the same workspace.

Licence activation

Identity alone does not grant use. A signed licence is bound to a device. Copying the portable folder does not copy activation. Offline use follows the issued licence and recorded grace rules.

Annual licence expiry

The paid term remains valid through its signed 14-day renewal grace. After that, existing work remains readable, searchable, exportable, and recoverable; normal editing pauses.

Perpetual-version behaviour

The perpetual licence grants permanent use rights to the eligible purchased version, subject to the documented activation and device rules. Twelve months of updates are included. Further updates may be offered separately later.

Uninstalling and data deletion

The current public line is a portable Windows package. Removing the application folder uninstalls it. Project data lives in the local workspace database the user chose; delete that workspace, its backups, and exports separately if the data should not remain.

Known limitations

  • No cloud sync and no collaborative multi-user editing.
  • Public download and purchasing are not open on this website.
  • Controlling and Time Booking are not part of the current public product.
  • Supported public platform: Windows.
